Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Peguero was once a well-regarded prospect within the Pirates' organization, but he's failed to establish himself as a key member of the team's future roster. After posting just a 73 wRC+ across 213 plate appearances in 2023, Peguero saw Nick Gonzales make a claim to the second base job in 2024 - limiting Peguero to only 10 big-league plate appearances. Shortstop is a bit more open ended after Oneil Cruz shifted to center field, though Isiah Kiner-Falefa is expected to begin the season as the regular at the position. That will leave Peguero in a battle for a roster spot as a depth infielder during spring training, and his path to fantasy relevance is exceptionally narrow entering his age-24 season.

Headed back to Triple-A
The Pirates optioned Peguero to Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday.
ANALYSIS
He'll give up his spot on the Pirates' 26-man roster to infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa (hamstring), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. After being called up from Triple-A on May 2, Peguero appeared in four games for Pittsburgh and went 2-for-9 with three strikeouts.

Stat Review
How does Liover Peguero compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

Todd Zola explains how projected playing time and a skills-based approach helps him identify upside plays late in a draft, as well as leading him to put Aaron Judge at the top of his personal rankings.

Peguero got his first significant sample in the majors in 2023, splitting his time almost exactly evenly between second base and shortstop. From a strictly fantasy perspective, he showed plenty of intrigue by racking up seven homers and six stolen bases in only 213 plate appearances. Those marks would suggest he has 20-20 potential, though there are red flags in his profile that call into question his ability to maintain a full-time job at the big-league level. First was his spiked strikeout rate. Throughout much of his minor-league career, Peguero struck out at a rate in the high teens or low 20s. During his first stint in Pittsburgh, that jumped to 31 percent. Regarded as at least an average defender by most scouting reports, Peguero struggled in that regard as well by delivering well below-average marks in defensive runs saved and range. Despite those warning signs, the Pirates don't have a clear plan at second base, and Peguero could get the first chance at the job. Given his prospect pedigree and surface-level success, he's a worthwhile dart throw in deeper draft formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

'Work in progress' offensively
Triple-A Indianapolis manager Miguel Perez said Peguero has improved in making hard contact and with his defense this season, though the shortstop's offense overall remains a "work in progress," reports Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old played in 59 games as a rookie in 2023 and has a .237/.280/.374 slash line with seven homers, six steals and a 31.5 percent strikeout rate in 59 games. Peguero has spent the full 2024 campaign at Triple-A, where a 25.8 percent strikeout rate could be an area of concern. He has a 1.029 OPS in his past 12 games with Indianapolis and could receive a look with the Pirates during the stretch run, but he isn't likely to so be relevant for fantasy managers in the immediate future.
